God of Technology: Creating the Internet in Another World-Chapter 317: The Swift Arrival

The entire Tulip Kingdom was caught up in an excited atmosphere.

They really hadn’t expected the dark cloud hanging over them to suddenly just disappear.

Almost at the same time, in the Goddess of Magic’s divine realm, Ren, the two gods, and Book had already returned.

"Lord Ren, you’ve taken control of a whole country—aren’t you worried something might go wrong? Shouldn’t you appoint a manager? A kingdom without a king is bound to have problems, and we left way too quickly. We didn’t even spend much time there at all. That’s really not good..."

As soon as everyone got back to their own turf and the urgent business was clearly done, at least for now, Book immediately reverted to its true nature and started going on and on.

"What could go wrong? It’s a ’country’ full of supernatural beings. I hold everyone’s life in my hands. Lady Dream wasn’t there for the past three thousand years, and nothing went wrong."

Ren cut Book off pretty casually. "Instead of worrying about that, why don’t you go develop some new features? I’ve got fresh ideas."

"New features? Already? I feel like our ten million Magic Net users haven’t even gotten used to the two new functions yet! But new features are good too..."

Maybe it was because Book had been stuck doing serious work for too long, especially since it had to stay hidden most of the time in the Tulip Kingdom, which left it with a lot to say. It just kept rambling on.

Ren cut it off again, gave some quick instructions, then waved his hand and teleported Book pretty far away.

Of course, with that guy’s abilities, it could come back instantly, but it understood what Ren meant. So it made a different choice—it went to the virtual divine realm to chat away at the Master of Depravity, and tell it about its experiences so that blockhead could be properly jealous!

"Are we developing new features right now?" The Goddess of Magic was a bit surprised.

"The pace of development can’t get thrown off."

Ren smiled. "Whether it’s the Magic Net, magic-tech, or the transformation of the whole world—none of it can stop."

Strengthening the Tulip Kingdom’s defenses, exploring the situation in the other world—this put the initiative in his hands. When to fight, what situation to fight in, other gods’ and mortals’ sense of crisis about the other world—all of it was like this.

Turn it into pressure, and it becomes the biggest driving force for development. Treat it as a resource point, and it becomes the biggest fuel in the development process.

"So now we’re making magical life and mechanical life to scout ahead?" the Goddess of Magic asked.

"Yeah, right. Time to explore that world."

While the two were talking, Betty also came over...

In the mortal realm, at the Hill Lands Commonwealth’s Foster Iron Mine—where Ren had already changed the terrain—everyone was still wrapped up in a festive atmosphere. The previously super-dangerous mine tunnels had disappeared, replaced by endless iron ore visible to the naked eye. From now on, mining wouldn’t require taking risks anymore. They’d just need to keep digging from the surface.

At first, some people were actually kind of panicked. They didn’t know if they’d still need this many miners once things got easier.

But when they found out the mine manager at Foster Iron Mine was still hiring people, and there were rumors the steel mill would expand by dozens or even hundreds of times, they went quiet, then erupted into even bigger celebrations.

Compared to their celebrations, Lava General was near the original tunnel entrance, staring at the countless worm monsters in front of him.

When the miracle descended and the terrain changed, countless worm monsters flew up and ended up imprisoned right in front of them.

After digesting everything over this period, he’d confirmed there were over 30,000 worm monsters total—more than a hundred times what they’d caught. The worm monsters needed for early development should be more than enough.

Lava General thought this, but he kept worrying these worm monsters would escape.

You had to understand—these things could even slowly eat through cages made of mithril, though it took a really long time.

It seemed like nothing could hold them.

If this many worm monsters got out, the consequences would be unthinkable.

But pretty quickly, he realized—the one imprisoning these worm monsters was the God of Technology!

How could a god possibly let these things escape?

So he started studying what exactly these black cages were made of.

In the end, he went silent.

The cages holding the worm monsters were actually... charcoal!

And it was tree branches with carbonized surfaces but still some flexibility inside, then wrapped with carbonized vines on the outside...

Any adult could easily break them.

He believed in the God of Technology, but out of instinct, out of awe for these unknown life forms, after communicating with Viscount Roster and the Wild Mage, he put all his energy here, watching these monsters.

Sure enough, as powerful as these worm monsters were, they had absolutely no ability to resist under the God of Technology’s cages. Monsters that could eat large amounts of metal and ore as food—turns out the method to imprison them was this simple.

He went silent.

What did all that mithril he’d used before even count for?

Right then, a dragon’s roar suddenly came from the sky, and the surrounding air seemed to change.

A green dragon clutching a huge basket flew toward Lava General’s location at a terrifying speed.

But this green dragon’s eyes were full of confusion.

Not long ago, it had picked up a job here. It hadn’t been that long—how had this place changed so much it barely recognized it? It was like it hadn’t been here in thousands of years. Had it taken a nap and thousands of years passed?

No! How was that possible?

Everywhere else was exactly the same!

A divine miracle?

That guy down there wouldn’t be trying to sacrifice me to a god, would he?

The green dragon’s mind instantly filled with all kinds of scenarios.

It even felt the urge to run away.

But pretty quickly, it realized things were probably fine.

Its current order was carrying some of the Church of Technology’s most important people to meet other important people from the Church of Technology. Everyone in this basket was top-tier talent.

And they’d all bought the new transport insurance that Dragon Delivery recently launched.

If something went wrong, it would have to pay out fifty million golden dragon coins.

In this situation, whatever happened down there probably wouldn’t be a problem.

With that thought, it flew toward the aura it was most familiar with and landed on the ground a bit unsteadily.

The Wild Mage, the apprentice, and other elites from Roster territory quickly got down from the basket.

Lava General was about to go up and greet them when he saw the usually cool Wild Mage suddenly bend over and throw up. The apprentice was straight-up sprawled on the ground, looking really uncomfortable.

The others weren’t in great shape either.
